Predicting the Impact of Alternative Splicing on Plant MADS Domain Protein Function [PDF]
Several genome-wide studies demonstrated that alternative splicing (AS) significantly increases the transcriptome complexity in plants. However, the impact of AS on the functional diversity of proteins is difficult to assess using genome-wide approaches.

Regulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]
Fruit ripening is a sophisticatedly orchestrated developmental process, unique to plants, that results in major physiological and metabolic changes, ultimately leading to fruit decay and seed dispersal.

Virus-induced gene complementation reveals a transcription factor network in modulation of tomato fruit ripening [PDF]
Plant virus technology, in particular virus-induced gene silencing, is a widely used reverse- and forward-genetics tool in plant functional genomics. However the potential of virus technology to express genes to induce phenotypes or to complement mutants

Characterization of the MADS-Box Gene CmFL3 in chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemummorifolium is one of the four major cut flowers in the world, with high ornamental and economic value. Flowering time is an important ornamental characteristic of chrysanthemum that affects its value in the market. In Arabidopsis, the FRUITFULL (FUL) gene plays a key role in inducing flowering. Here, we isolated an FUL clade MADS-box gene,

Food for thought: how nutrients regulate root system architecture [PDF]
The spatial arrangement of the plant root system (root system architecture, RSA) is very sensitive to edaphic and endogenous signals that report on the nutrient status of soil and plant.

MADS-Box Genes and Gibberellins Regulate Bolting in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) [PDF]
Bolting in lettuce is promoted by high temperature and bolting resistance is of great economic importance for lettuce production. But how bolting is regulated at the molecular level remains elusive.

A ubiquitously expressed MADS-box gene from Nicotiana tabacum
Experiments in Antirrinum majus, Arabidopsis thaliana and Petunia hybrida have demonstrated that putative transcription factors of the so-called MADS-box family play an important role in determining floral organ identity. Such regulatory genes are transiently expressed in small numbers of cells in the floral apex.

Multiple interactions amongst floral homeotic MADS box proteins. [PDF]
Most known floral homeotic genes belong to the MADS box family and their products act in combination to specify floral organ identity by an unknown mechanism. We have used a yeast two-hybrid system to investigate the network of interactions between the Antirrhinum organ identity gene products.

Evolutionary divergence of motifs in B-class MADS-box proteins of seed plants
Background MADS-box transcription factors function as homo- or heterodimers and regulate many aspects of plant development; moreover, MADS-box genes have undergone extensive duplication and divergence.
